حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ خَلَّادٍ الْبَاهِلِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ خُنَيْسٍ ، عَنْ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي يَزِيدَ ، قَالَ ، قَالَ لِي ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ ، يَا حَسَنُ ، أَخْبَرَنِي جَدُّكَ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي يَزِيدَ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : " كُنْتُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ : إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ الْبَارِحَةَ فِيمَا يَرَى النَّائِمُ كَأَنِّي أُصَلِّي إِلَى أَصْلِ شَجَرَةٍ ، فَقَرَأْتُ : السَّجْدَةَ ، فَسَجَدْتُ ، فَسَجَدَتِ الشَّجَرَةُ لِسُجُودِي ، فَسَمِعْتُهَا تَقُولُ : اللَّهُمَّ احْطُطْ عَنِّي بِهَا وِزْرًا ، وَاكْتُبْ لِي بِهَا أَجْرًا ، وَاجْعَلْهَا لِي عِنْدَكَ ذُخْرًا ، قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ : فَرَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " قَرَأَ السَّجْدَةَ فَسَجَدَ ، فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِهِ مِثْلَ الَّذِي أَخْبَرَهُ الرَّجُلُ عَنْ قَوْلِ الشَّجَرَةِ " .
´It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said:` “I was with the Prophet (ﷺ), and a man came to him and said: ‘Last night while I was sleeping, I saw that I was praying towards the base of a tree. I recited (an Ayah of) prostration and prostrated, and the tree prostrated when I did, and I heard it saying: Allahummah-tut anni biha wizran, waktub li biha ajran, waj’al-ha li ‘indaka dhukhran (O Allah, reduce my burden of sin thereby, reward me for it and store it for me with You).’ Ibn ‘Abbas said: “I saw the Prophet (ﷺ) recite (an Ayah of) prostration and then prostrate, and I heard him saying in his prostration something like that which the man had told him the tree said.”
